If you have a choice and aren't adding soffit.
your not a carpenter are ya?
Actually I grew up with it.
soffit isnt a problem?
I guess I'm a purist. And it's the predominant style. I don't like the finished look of eaves with a squared tail fascia and soffit. Not angling the tails is minimalist - okay for a quick shed. You have to snap a line and trim them anyway, why not angle them? If your only concern is runoff staining it over time, bigger dripedge works well, with or without gutters.
Actually if the shingles dont hang over enough the drip edge does nothing, Water wicks. I dont understand why you think the soffit cant still be flat. The only dif is the fascia is angled so water doesnt run over it.
